Lightbulb Standard file name segment exclusion when doing IMDB search

Currently (v0.2.3.0 RC2) the entire file name is used for IMDB search, but often the file names will include words like the following, which will confuse the search and result in IMDB conflicts:

H264
VC-1
MPEG2
LPCM
720p
1080i
1080p
HD-DVD
Blu-ray
Remux
DTS
DDPlus
OAR
AC3
EAC3
DD51
HDTV
HDRe

It would be great if these words can be excluded when performing search. Hard-coded is OK, customized word list in Movie Database -> Scan panel is even better.

Or even better like I have suggested before.. An option to look for the movie based on the folder name instead of the files.

Pretty please with sugar on top.... Implement that option.

200% agree!! Most of the movie I have are more than one files. At the moment MP is wasting time performing IMDB search for EACH file rather than once for the entire folder.

Question

Me too! I have 200+ conflicts, no way do i want to go through and manually sort that, but all folders are cleanly named... there has to be a way surely?
